:19:01
It's not without serious
reservation that I begin...
:19:04
... the seemingly impossible task...
:19:06
... of documenting my own methods.
:19:09
It always seemed that...
:19:11
... someone else should do it.
:19:13
Unfortunately, my faithful
legal representative...
:19:16
... has shown no interest whatsoever.
:19:19
And so I am forced
to take on the task myself...
:19:23
... with no intention...
:19:24
... of glorifying or aggrandizing
or immortalizing my own memory...
:19:29
... but rather in the hope...
:19:31
... that such a memoir might someday...
:19:33
... be useful to others.
:19:34
I begin my examination...
:19:37
... of the method.
:19:39
I always say my work
relies fundamentally...
:19:41
... on two basic principles:
:19:44
Objectivity and observation.
:19:47
Or the 2 Obs, as I call them.
:19:52
My work relies on my ability
to remain absolutely...
:19:56
... purely...
:19:57
... objective.
:19:59
Detached.
:20:03
I have mastered...
:20:04
... the fine art...
:20:06
... of detachment.
:20:07
And while it comes at some cost...
:20:10
... this supreme objectivity is what
makes me...
:20:13
... I dare say, the greatest observer
the world has ever known.
:20:43
Observing a subject,
particularly a client...
:20:46
... in his or her own element
is usually very telling.
:20:50
Behavior is always more revealing
than language...
:20:55
... if you know what to look for.
:20:59
No rain. Would you believe it?
